Well, son is in a hypomanic phase and agitated. Needing me to get there to find housing. Daughter broke her nose wrestling today and I just got back from the hospital where she is asleep awaiting surgery in the oops, in a few hours. Need to get to son's early monday. Nightmare stuff. Whenever I complain about one thing everything compounds so best not to complain. Felt very ill at hospital with red face and hot flash. Thought I needed to vomit or pass out. I put on a cool Johnny and a cold washcloth as well as drinking a fe gallons of cold water and I was okay. I never eat chocolate and had had some on an empty stomach. That and being ill. Up in a few hours to be there when they take her for surgery. Sleep now. Night night.

Holy cannoli WW !!! Your poor dear girl's nose too?? This really is beyond the beyonds!

I wonder if what happened at hospital could be panic attack? Ever have one before?

I hope your daughter's surgery goes well, and you drive safely tomorrow. Maybe bring a book on tape or something to distract you a bit?

Hugs, emmy

My response at the hospital was called 2 vicodin, one Levaquin, 750 mg, No food for at least 18 hours and then a piece of chocolate. That and perhaps a few hormones. I slep 2 hours. Kid had surgery and did well but then I sent her on a plane and I am scared. Son is grumpy and depressed now. Tring so hard to find affordable housing. Girl is a little racoon with a triple size uvular from intubation. She was a bit grumpy as she was waking up so I ran out and filled scripts. Had another friend help home daughter pack and then had my other friend drive both ways where I kept falling asleep and saying dumb things and halluncinating from lack of sleep. Son is being demanding. Need a small quiet place for him. Ate some real food today. A grilled cheese and tomatoe on wheat at the hospital. Nervous, I have to drive far tomorrow and I am tired, and how can I find housing so quickly? Hubby in FL and kids due soon. Scared about the broken nose one. I can't think straight. I am exhausted. No memory. Daughter lokks like a horror movie character, black and blue and a nose so swollen and it's stuffed with wicking and she has a bandage mustach. I hope her ears are okay on the flights. Doc assured they would be. She is in a wheel chair so southwest has to find her connecting flight. Her sister has her meds and knows what to do. Damned, this week I was supposed to play.

I feel so bad for all you are going through. I wish I could be there to help so you could find a time to rest. There is little enough we can offer except our support and positive thoughts.

Please, please take some time to for you and have a rest.

Take care.

Looks like you're being pulled in a million different directions all at the same time. YOU are the one that needs the rest more than anyone. Take care of yourself. Remember if you are not well, then you won't be able to take care of anyone else. There's really not much I can say but take care of yourself, try to get rest at any chance you can and that I'm thinking of you. (((((((((((wisewoman)))))))))) what the heck?

Hi wise, hope you are able to take full advantage of the blizzard for some R&R for yourself. I know it all comes from love, but you sound so overextended energy wise. For myself, sleep and nutrition are important players to be on my mental baseball diamond. The challenging team rolls right over me if I take either one off the field. Please take care of yourself too.

Seems we have something in common. Our blizzard started last night. The big clean-up is today. I heard we are due for blizzard every day this week. YUCK!!! AND not only do my caps lock on my keyboard but the whole dang thing is about to go out the window. It's heard a lot of 4 letter words that no angel should ever hear. what the heck?

Maybe that's a lot of my problem, I sleep as little as possible and I barely eat anything lately. If my GP and family knew how little I was eating, they'd hospitalize me. It's been threatened before and I was eating much better then than I am now. what the heck?

sqrl, the sleeping and eating thing is well taken. I did rest, especially as i took extra meds last night. Then I have been on the phone a lot looking for apartments for kiddo. Angel, I became very ill Sat p.m. from not eating right. Almost passed out in hospital. Well, I have little to offer, thanks for being there and please know how much it means.

I hope things settle down for you very soon. I can't imagine dealing with so much at the same time.

As for me, I don't want to eat. I have to force myself to eat anything at all. what the heck?

I am at the college library where my son goes. Moved him yesterday to new apartment and man oh man the house he was in is a pit! He feels he has really messed up his life. Big decisions. Can't read all posts and threads to get caught up now but thought I would check in. Daughter's nose is good. She is enjoying self at grandparents. Staying another night here to finish settling son and get necessary accomodations. I feel this school has discriminated against him big time! Panic attack? Had one years ago that felt like I couldn't breath and my belly would explode. This was a hot red feeling and nausea. Could be though, anything is possible. But what do I have to feel anxious about? A ha, so that's it??? Thanks for the support and I am glad I can drop by the college library and check in, thanks
